Java in the Cloud: Best Practices and Strategies Optimizing Code for Performance and Scalability

Abstract

This paper explores essential techniques for optimizing code to enhance performance and scalability in cloud environments. As organizations increasingly migrate their Java applications to cloud platforms, understanding best practices becomes crucial for achieving efficient resource utilization and responsiveness. This paper delves into methodologies such as leveraging serverless architectures, employing containerization for microservices, and optimizing database interactions. It emphasizes strategies for minimizing latency and maximizing throughput through efficient code design and utilization of cloud-native services. By integrating these practices, developers can navigate the complexities of Java deployment in the cloud, ensuring robust performance and scalability tailored to modern cloud infrastructures.
